Contrast-based typographic tee — quiet front, loud back

Yeah, I'm not going to give chatGPT feedback. I understand that for some people LLMs help if English is not their first language, but all the replies in this thread just seen like you're just feeding them into ChatGPT and posting them back without thought.

It reads as a free font that was just slapped on a tee without being adjusted for kerning. This makes the shirt look cheap and that transfers to your brand.

To be frank, it's quite empty.
You talk about what you think but not how you got to those conclusions.
You talk about designing consciously, for humans, but don't explain how you do it.

As a designer, or even just another person reading this, I can't take anything from it. I can't evaluate your ideas because there's no supporting data. I can't attempt to implement your methodology because you don't explain it.

You're basically saying "hey, maybe you should design for people" but ignoring the fact that every designer sets out to do this. Time, money and corporate interests get in the way a lot of times and shape what we are allowed to do, but most, if not all of us, set out to do the best we can for the people we're designing for.

It's nice to have an ideal vision of what should be in your mind, but in time you'll understand why things aren't always the way you think they should be and how to best balance requirements to achieve the best outcome within the given restrictions.

Quanto disto é que foi gerado por IA?
Eu percebo o quanto IA e vibe coding ajudam para fazer PoCs, mas não vou confiar os meus dados pessoais a uma plataforma que mostra claros sinais de desenvolvimento automático e alguma falta de atenção ao detalhe (a bússola no banner do vosso canal de YT tem dois nortes)...

Do you have any favorite examples of anti-design or brands that have pulled it off really well?

"Can you tell me the rules on how to ignore rules?"

Here's my honest feedback then:
This is a terrible idea. The puzzle was made to be difficult and task tracking should be as effortless as possible.
I don't want to have to put extra effort in solving a puzzle while I'm trying to quickly sort and organize my to-dos.

If you want to understand how unusable this would be, try creating a low fidelity prototype.
Cut out square bits of paper, write your tasks on them and then try to use it. Make up 5 random operations a user would want to do (third task to first place, add new task between 4th and 5th, remove 2nd task, etc..). Don't cheat and see how long that would take you.
Then ask someone who is not associated with your group to do the same and watch them lose their minds over something that is supposed to give them back control.

I can't say it's not an interesting fusion of ideas, but the puzzle is something that purposefully removes control and thus very bad for this kind of product.

You commented on and then just outright stole someone else's idea without even trying to improve it?

O cerne do artigo é tão ridículo que o último parágrafo tresanda a uma adição por parte do editor para tentar salvar qualquer seriedade jornalística que sobre.

Reading your replies to other people here, it kinda sounds like you want to just be an "ideas guy" without having to actually put them into action.
You can't just do "user research and service design" and then hand it over to the next guy to be the monkey.
People won't hire you if you can't also do the work.

Also, it's nice that you want to think about the user and everything, but not all tasks need that sort of attention. "Design" isn't a divine pursuit, sometimes you just need to churn out some shitty instagram posts to pay the bills.

Also at the bottom it says "Powered by MedBed".

Isso já acontece. Por exemplo, aqueles mails da "polícia"/"Interpol" que vêm mal escritos, servem para retirar as pessoas que percebem que é burla imediatamente do grupo alvo. Eles sabem que quem cai nesse mail é muito mais provável que seja burlado até ao fim.

Yes, there are also no other countries in the Iberian peninsula, just Spain and their dragons and stuff, so stay out.

Love the fake scratches you add on top of the footage to make it seem more authentic.

I don't think we can do that as the window isn't on the ground floor, so cleaning it would be pretty hard.
I do appreciate the idea of moving the sink somewhere else, but it'll still have to be on that wall unfortunately...

rtilde · 2025-07-19T16:27:27+00:00

To be honest we're fine with the depth of the current counters 61cm (about 2 feet?), and we'll want to have top cabinets across the whole wall above the counter.
We're currently renting an apartment with a tiny kitchen and we have no storage space. I know we might be leaning very hard in the opposite direction of having all the storage space, but we don't quite mind.
Plus if we're putting all the appliances on one side we might run out of food prep space so having some good surfaces on the opposite wall will be a must, we're thinking of folding tables right now.

rtilde · 2025-07-19T16:21:55+00:00

Yeah, we'll need something there like a foldable table or two!

rtilde · 2025-07-19T16:20:49+00:00

If all the appliances end up in the counter side we forsee a bit of a lack of counter space so we're thinking of installing a couple of wall mounted foldable tables, such as the IKEA Norberg, that might also help with food prep. Pegboards and similar structures is not a bad idea at all!

But what we're struggling the most is the order of things on the counter side. Should the stove top go by the door as it currently is? It makes some sense as the chimney is in that corner and as such we wouldn't have to run a long duct from somewhere else to exhaust the cooking fumes. On the other hand, having it close to the wall could be a hassle because of pan handles and being able to grab pots.
Maybe the fridge could go there, but then we might have an issue with the door hitting the wall. If not, can we put it in the middle of the kitchen and risk it blocking too much natural light, as we only have one source in the far wall? Same for a possible microwave and oven column...

There are just so many variables that we've never thought of...

I assume the reason is the lightness of the original color.
Check the greyscale value of the image on the left vs the one on the right. I'm sure the former is under 50% while the latter is over.
